We’d look for any excuse to book a flight to France, map out a route, and spend a few days scouring flea markets, brocantes, and vides greniers (the French version of a garage sale) for vintage finds. The next best thing? A few small vintage shops, with wares hand-sourced from antiques shops and stalls throughout France, and easily browsable from your couch. Unlike bigger online platforms like eBay and Etsy, these are more curated shops run (and sourced) by individuals and couples, with small se...

Alright all you well-heeled track rats, speed freaks, gearheads, and various assorted mechanical reprobates with (lots of) money. Brabham Automotive has announced all of the livery and color options for their soon-to-be-released BT62, and if this thing is as fast as it is pretty, I foresee lots of non-owners jealousy sulking in the paddock in the near future.
There will be two broad categories of paintwork to choose from: The Celebration series and the Signature series. The BT62 will soon be out... Tags: Brabham Automotive, Car News, Feature

It typically shuts down for two weeks of maintenance but the bearish market has led the company to choose to keep production offline for an additional week in hopes of supporting prices. Producing ethanol from about 43% beet and the remainder from wheat, the facility accounts for about 70% of the sugar producer’s ethanol production capacity.

Good morning
A couple of articles for you this week after tonight’s newsletter, one serious and one not quite so serious.
The serious article was a struggle to write. For some time now I’ve been trying to make sense of electric vehicle sales. They are probably the most talked about new automotive technology ever, and they promise a raft of new features and benefits to pe...
